Sugar Hill Elementary, at 24455 Old Country Road, was on lockdown from about 8:35 to 9:50 a.m. as deputies looked for a vehicle-theft suspect who had ditched a car near the school and fled on foot, Riverside County sheriff’s Deputy Albert Martinez said by phone.

He said a helicopter and a canine unit were involved in the search. There was no word on the outcome.

Honey Hollow Elementary School, 11765 Honey Hollow St., was placed on the security status from 10:38 to 10:57 a.m. Martinez said deputies had received a report of a burglary in progress at a nearby home.

That incident ended with a suspect in custody, he said.

During a lockdown, students remain in their classrooms and there are no outdoor activities.
